If you use Tailscale or Netbird, you can avoid exposing your VPS to the internet completely.

Eh. Bitwarden is better in that way, but not by much. It's honestly not that bad if you just sync the keepass DB somewhere. Whether that's cloud or syncthing.

Bitwarden's apps are where it's a better experience. But there's still somethings about the apps that are very lacking. Like not being able to sort entries.

I easily sync my keepass db across 5-6 devices.

I use KeePass on like.. I dunno 5-6 devices? They all sync together via Syncthing. No server needed. My keepass db is just one of the things synced this way.

Works pretty well.

These are the apps I use:

Desktop (Linux & macOS): KeePassXC Andrdoid: KeePassDX iOS: KeePassium

The whole ecosystem can be used for free. But like.. tip your open source devs yo.

Syncing happens pretty quickly with Syncthing. So conflicts in the keepass DBs are very rare (maybe once a year if I'm impatient after a change on a different device). But they do happen, I'll give you that. Some restraint (wait for sync) and checking (this is where sorting by modified helps!!!!) what's the latest change helps.

You can't fathom why someone would want to.... sort a list...?

I don't know how to answer this. I think you're serious, but I can't tell. Want to read that community post I linked where over 600+ people voted for the sorting ability?

Use Tailscale. Don't expose the port to the public. You're good to go. On iOS, the Tailscale app allows for on demand joining of your Tailscale network (when you're off from your home network for example). This makes it easy. On Android it's not as direct, can use Tasker to achieve this, it's not great. But there's a feature request on their repo too.

Alternatively, there's Netbird which behaves similarly. I haven't tried it, but have read good things about it.

Neither are US based as well if that's a concern for you. Tailscale is Canadian, and Netbird is German. Netbird is completely open source. With Tailscale, the CLI and Android apps are open source, and there's an open source alternative to the control server called Headscale. But honestly, using their free tier is probably enough (for both services).

Lol for years I have been wanting to switch from KeePass to Bitwarden. Mainly cause the UX/UI felt nice to me.

My initial hesitance was that I didn't love the idea of my passwords being on someone else's servers. But I found out about Vaultwarden. So I kept my eye on it's development and longevity. Now that it's well established, I'd say I trust it now. Next I figured out a way to selfhost without exposing Vaultwarden to the public. Everything seems to be lined up for me to switch.

A few months ago, I decided it was time. After moving my passwords over and getting a flow working, I went to sort by most recent.... Oh wait. You can't sort by date. You can't sort lol I sat with this for a few hours and reverted back to my trusted and working KeePass flow.

EDIT: This is one of the most voted feature requests. Also, it's just table stakes! It's crazy they don't have this feature 😂

I would be surprised if they were on Lemmy. But it's a cool app all things considered. Just wish they weren't... Doing that stuff lol. Good share either way.

Privacy policies change. Most closed source services ans apps don't have a GitHub repo. I've seen some, they're usually for github issues. But they're all slimey and confuse users into thinking they're open source. Not a good look. I would not trust a company that does things like this. The goal is to support open source. Which is why Jellyfin > Plex

[–] quaff@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Yeah, it's pretty slimey actually. They have a github, but there's no issues or nothing. It's just a readme, probably just so they can have the Github logo in their footer. To someone not looking closely, they'll see the logo and think JellyWatch is open source. Disgusting tactics.

If this was open source I'd give it a shot. Not sure I'd trust a closed source application to access (and track) something as sensitive as my jellyfin library & usage.

Whoops my bad. Yes, Stoat is the re-brand of Revolt. I've also seen mentions of Sharkord.

Really need it to do Cantonese. That's the only thing keeping me on Google Translate 😓

 

Hey y'all. I've been testing a bunch of Note taking solutions and nothing seems to check off what I want and need.

I want a simple interface (both for list view and note editor/view), preferably similar to Google Keep, but a regular list is fine as well.

Key features:

A. being able to drag and drop re-order checkbox lists.

e.g.

  • [ ] item 1
  • [ ] item 2
  • [x] item 4
  • [x] item 3

I'd like to be able to just drag and drop the above to sort things correctly.

B. E2EE at rest.

C. CTRL+F inside the note view/edit!!

Honestly, the only functionality I truly want is A. But most of the solutions I found are either proprietary or can't do it.

Self hosted options I've tried:

  • Joplin (can't do A; UX is not great)
  • Standard notes (A + C is gated by their self hosted premium subscription; I don't mind paying for my apps, but the prices are ridiculous)
  • Silverbullet.md (can't do A)
  • Quillpad (very similar to Google Keep and can do A, but has terrible file syncing, not E2EE)

Notesnook looks almost as insane as Standard Notes to self host (mimicing AWS stack locally is nuts). Has anyone tried Notesnook yet? I don't want to spend another afternoon setting something heavy up only to find that the feature I want is gated by a heavy $.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: Woops! I am looking to use the notes app on both Android and Web/Desktop Linux. Preferably an open source solution.

 

Some fedi folks hosted a two day con in Vancouver this past weekend. If anyone is interested, there's a video of all the talks. Would love to see some Lemmy representation next year 🫡

 

My instance has a bunch of pinned posts that stay pinned for a while... I typically use Card view which means those posts take up a lot of space!

Would it be possible to make pinned posts all compact in card view?

Or maybe letting us change between compact/card view for individual posts. Maybe that's a bit overkill tho. I really just want it for pinned posts 🥲🙏

PS: Thunder is so awesome. The experimental unifiedpush (and the thunder server!) is an awesome addition ❤️

Hi y'all. I've just switched back to Android and I am trying to find a more modern SSH client (supports Fish Shell). I have a license for JuiceSSH from before but I notice it doesn't play well with my servers fish shell. Anyone have any good recommendations for SSH clients that are FOSS and recently updated?

EDIT: recommendation by @enemenemu@lemm.ee

Using Termux (with styling add-on) from F-Droid. Installed OpenSSH and using SSH that way. 🤓🙏

 

I'm following #Vancouver hash tags and I don't see anything showing up on my Home feed; there's been new posts since following the hashtag though. Those new posts with the hashtag should be showing up on my Home feed right? I know they do on pixelfed.social.

I see a post on my pixelfed.social home feed for an account @pixelfed.ca that has #Vancouver in the post.. but on my pixelfed.ca home feed, I'm not seeing that post. I can search for it though? Is there some kind of home feed setting I'm missing?

Does anyone else have a similar experience with following hash tags that aren’t showing on the home feed?

Will the import feature be enabled at some point? I want to migrate my photos over, would be good to use the import function for that 🙏

 

Wow. This app is so damned polished already!

The biggest feature I notice missing in almost all Lemmy apps, is jumping to the top on the first tap of the tab icon of the view you’re in.

E.g. you’ve scrolled down a bit while in the Posts tab, then you tap the Posts icon, in Apollo it would jump to the top of the list view in Posts, then second tap would take you to the communities subscribed slideout view.

Lemma does the second function but not the first. Would love to see this added as it’s a great quality of life feature IMO.
